Things rich families teach their boys;

-never look expensive look unbothered.
-don't explain yourself, power never over-explains.
-keep assets boring and pleasures private.
-learn which laws matter and which ones are for poor people only.
-never fall in love before you understand leverage.
-your surname opens doors. Don't embarrass it.
-cash is for emergencies. Credit is for opportunities.
-friends are categorized: useful, neutral, entertainment.
-if something is loud, emotional, or viral, its already a bad deal.
-always know who actually owns the room. It's rarely the loudest person.
-don't argue with broke people about money. Don't argue with emotional people about logic.
-learn taxes before you learn multiplication tables properly.
-you don't work hard forever. You work hard early to stop later.
-never let pleasure habits become visible patterns.
-reputation is currency. One scandal costs more than ten failures.
-silence is safer than honesty in most rooms.
-if you can't control your sleep, hunger, lust, or temper, you can't control money.
-marry someone who improves your bloodline, not your mood.
-keep one legal problem away from disaster at all times.
-always have an exit plan. For jobs, cities, county, relationships, even friendships.

Just rules whispered, not posted.

Nothing drags you down like being surrounded by people who always complain. They’ll make you see life as a burden like they do instead of making every moment count

Yes it can be hard but let’s try to be optimistic & learnto see good out of every situation 🫂❤️

Businessman Mzoli Ngcawuzele, founder of popular Cape Town Mzoli’s Place dies after illness

Mzoli Ngcawuzele, the well-known South African entrepreneur and property developer best known for founding Mzoli’s Place has reportedly passed away at his home following a period of illness.

Ngcawuzele rose to prominence through Mzoli’s Place, the iconic shisa nyama in Gugulethu, Cape Town, which became a globally recognised social and cultural hotspot, attracting both local patrons and international visitors drawn to its unique township dining experience and vibrant atmosphere.

Many described him as a pioneer who helped reshape perceptions of township tourism and informal dining culture in South Africa.

Founded in 2003 by entrepreneur Mzoli Ngcawuzele, the establishment started as a small butchery operating from his garage in Gugulethu. With funding support from the Development Bank of South Africa, it quickly expanded into a full-scale social hub that blended food, music, and township culture into a unique experience that attracted both locals and international tourists. One of its major milestones came in the mid-2000s when it gained national and international attention, attracting celebrities, politicians, and global visitors. It was even featured by British celebrity chef Jamie Oliver, helping cement its reputation as a must-visit cultural hotspot in Cape Town. With the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and economic pressures, contributed to its indefinite closure in 2021.

Jokes aside, Dr Irvin Khoza has been the Chairman of the PSL while Orlando Pirates did not win the league for 14-years.

For many of those years, Orlando Pirates has been finishing second.

What proof do you need that he is running a solid institution without bias? There is banter and then there is disrespect.

Let’s show some respect to the Iron Duke, he is running a solid institution. 🙏🏾

TO THE KHOSI NATION 👑 — FROM YOUR PIRATES PARENTS 🏴‍☠️

Dear Kaizer Chiefs,

Yhooo… you actually listened! 🙌🏾
1-1 against Sundowns. Parent proud. Job done.

We want to say a big THANK YOU for holding the line and keeping the league title race alive for Soweto. For 90 minutes tonight, we were one Soweto. One goal. One prayer. One result.

BUT LET’S BE CLEAR — AND DON’T GET IT TWISTED 😛

That support was on a 90-minute lease. It expired at full time.
The whistle blew. The stadium lights dimmed. Our alliance? Officially dissolved.

We weren’t negotiating in bad faith. This was pure BUSINESS.
The league title must come home to Soweto. Sundowns can’t be allowed to take it to Pretoria. That was the mission. Mission accomplished. Contract closed.

From tomorrow morning? It’s back to normal programming.
Pirates vs Chiefs is Pirates vs Chiefs. No friendship. No hugs. No shared drinks.
We’re not friends. We’re rivals. We’re family. We’re WAR. ⚔️

Now to our Buccaneer family:
Eyes forward. Hearts locked in. We’ve got our remaining games to win. The title is still in our hands.

Thank you Khosi. Now go back to being Khosi.
And we go back to being PIRATES 🏴‍☠️

BEE RULES GET TOUGHER

South Africa's Treasury has unveiled tough new BEE rules for government contracts.

Under the draft regulations, firms bidding for state work must prove that 40% of their own spending goes to majority Black-owned enterprises.

They must also subcontract 30% of contract value to South African citizens.

The goal is to use the R1 trillion annual procurement budget - roughly 15% of GDP - to drive transformation and job creation.
